Hi Fernand, > For months i am looking for the best solutions to manipulating data in > Dialogs instead of forms.
Just this morning, sitting in the subway and having no newspaper to read :), I wondered whether it would make sense to implement the runtime code for all the database controls in dialogs. Adding a full-blown dedicated UI for creating "database dialogs" would be an additional effort, but perhaps it would be valueable having only the "runtime", i.e. the ability to programmatically create and execute such dialogs. As a first step, at least. > So i was missing a GridControl. > Last week i Readed on Gulfoss that a new AWT UNO Dialog GridControl is > coming, I discused with the makers why there is no "dataloader" > available.

Not olnly that, it won't scale. IIRC, the API for the new table control requires you to have all data in memory, something you usually won't do with a complete result set. Instead, there you usually only hold the data which is displayed (plus some cached data), and re-fetch everything else as needed.
